Differential privacy is a notion of confidentiality that protects the privacy of individuals while allowing useful computations on their private data. Deriving differential priva...
We present a general theory of Gifford-style type and effect annotations, where effect annotations are sets of effects. Generality is achieved by recourse to the theory of algebra...
: We develop and study the concept of dataflow process networks as used for example by Kahn to suit exact computation over data types related to real numbers, such as continuous fu...
: We address the question of how to communicate among distributed processes values such as real numbers, continuous functions and geometrical solids with arbitrary precision, yet e...
Abstract. Many logics for AI applications that are defined by denotational semantics are trivialized in the presence of inconsistency. It is therefore often desirable, and practic...
McCarthy’s amb operator has no known denotational semantics, and its basic operational properties - the context lemma, the compatibility of refinement similarity and convex bis...
We develop a sound and complete equational theory for the functional quantum programming language QML. The soundness and completeness of the theory are with respect to the previou...

Abstract: Denotational semantics is a powerful technique to formally define programming languages. However, language constructs are not always orthogonal, so many semantic equation...
We present a denotational semantics for the hardware compilation language Handel-C that maps language constructs to a set of equations, which describe the structure of the resulti...
Denotational semantics can be based on algebras with additional structure (order, metric, etc.) which makes it possible to interpret recursive specifications. It was the idea of El...
